I am a package maintainer as well and involved in the linked discussion. I 
think a short TL;DR would be helpful to you:
h2. Summary, TL;DR

Chocolatey is a package manager for Windows.

*Current state:* we have a package "netbeans" for NetBeans 8.2, see 
[https://chocolatey.org/packages/netbeans.]

*New state:* Apache NetBeans has officially been approven, thus we now have 
three alternative options:
 * Provide packages "netbeans", "apache-netbeans": "netbeans" is for the old 
version 8, "apache-netbeans" serves versions 9, 10 and 11 in parallel.
 Users of "apache-netbeans" may pin their desired major version and thus for 
example still receive updates on the 9.x line.

 * Provide packages "netbeans", "apache-netbeans9", "apache-netbeans10", 
"apache-netbeans11"
 Same as above, but now the versions are split onto three packages on their own.
 * Provide package "netbeans" with versions 8, 9, 10 and 11 in parallel
 Again, users may pin their version and still receive updates.

*Question from us to you*: Which option would you favor?
